Enhancing the rate of genetic gain in public-sector plant breeding programs: lessons from the breeder’s equation
The breeder’s equation is the foundational application of quantitative genetics to crop improvement. Guided by the variables that describe response to selection, emerging breeding technologies can make a powerful step change in the effectiveness of public breeding programs. The most promising innova...
